Dr. Norman Borlaug

The man who saved a billion lives

Dr. Norman Borlaug seen standing in Mexican wheat field with a group of biologists Dr. Norman Borlaug, third from the left, trains biologists in Mexico on how to increase wheat yields - part of his life-long war on hunger.

Here's a time line of Dr. Borlaug's life:

  • 1914 - Born in Cresco, Iowa
  • 1933 - Leaves his family's farm to attend the University of Minnesota, thanks to a Depression era program known as the "National Youth Administration"
  • 1935 - Has to stop school and save up more money. Works in the Civilian Conservation Corps, helping starving Americans. "I saw how food changed them", he said. "All of this left scars on me."
  • 1937 - Finishes university and takes a job in the US Forestry Service
  • 1938 - Marries wife of 69 years Margret Gibson. Gets laid off due to budget cuts. Inspired by Elvin Charles Stakman, he returns to school study under Stakman, who teaches him about breeding pest-resistent plants.
  • 1941 - Tries to enroll in the military after the Pearl Harbor attack, but is rejected. Instead, the military asked his lab to work on waterproof glue, DDT to control malaria, disinfectants, and other applied science.
  • 1942 - Receives a Ph.D. in Genetics and Plant Pathology
  • 1944 - Rejects a 100% salary increase from Dupont, leaves behind his pregnant wife, and flies to Mexico to head a new plant pathology program. Over the next 16 years, his team breeds 6,000 different strains of disease resistent wheat - including different varieties for each major climate on Earth.
  • 1945 - Discovers a way to grown wheat twice each season, doubling wheat yields
  • 1953 - crosses a short, sturdy dwarf breed of wheat with a high-yeidling American breed, creating a strain that responds well to fertilizer. It goes on to provide 95% of Mexico's wheat.
  • 1962 - Visits Delhi and brings his high-yielding strains of wheat to the Indian subcontinent in time to help mitigate mass starvation due to a rapidly expanding population
  • 1970 - receives the Nobel Peace Prize
  • 1983 - helps seven African countries dramatically increase their maize and sorghum yields
  • 1984 - becomes a distinguished professor at Texas A&M University
  • 2005 - states "we will have to double the world food supply by 2050." Argues that genetically modified crops are the only way we can meet the demand, as we run out of arable land. Says that GM crops are not inherently dangerous because "we've been genetically modifying plants and animals for a long time. Long before we called it science, people were selecting the best breeds."
  • 2009 - dies at the age of 95.

"Borlaug's life and achievement are testimony to the far-reaching contribution that one man's towering intellect, persistence and scientific vision can make to human peace and progress."

-- Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh

Okay,
So first, lets look at this user story again.

Your #image should use max-width and height properties to resize responsively, relative to the width of its parent element,

Your css is correct but not applied to the correct part of your html.

img {
  max-width: 100%;
  display: block;
  height: auto;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

Also read this part of the instructions again. Where is the link to your css?

Note: Be sure to add <link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css"> in your HTML to link your stylesheet and apply your CSS

I also cannot see a <head> or <body> element, this is not strictly needed to pass the project, but is considered best practice.

This is css code and should be in your stylesheet.
You should then add a link element to the index.html to link the styles.css

13

Would this be the exact code

 <img

    img {

  margin: 0 auto;
}

<a href="<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">"

This is not the correct method.

Here are some resources to help you with this project.
1- to find mistakes in your html use this online html validator

https://validator.w3.org/#validate_by_input

Just paste the html there and it will give you a list of errors and warnings. Focus on the errors.

2- to help you remember how to link your stylesheet use this link for examples
https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tag_link.asp

I Do not Understand can you check this for me Please

<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">

You should not have css in the middle of a html element. This is incorrect syntax - meaning that the code is wrongly written and will not work.

What I was saying before is that you need to target the #image id, not the img element in your css.

You need to move your css to the css file tab and swap img for #image.

Also your css style sheet link should be in a <head> element. Do the first few Cafe Menu lessons again to learn how to correctly structure a html document.

17

Hi,
You need to think about the concept of linking CSS file to your HTML. This means everything should be done separately, on the other words you can not use CSS functions within HTML structure. Those selector’s properties should not be there.

        we can meet the demand, as we run out of arable land. Says that GM crops
        are not inherently dangerous because "we've been genetically modifying

Pls check /HTML There is problem Involving Image Part

You are still using incorrect html/css syntax. You cannot mix html/css code. It won’t work.

    <img
    img {
  max-width: 100%;
  display: block;
  height: auto;
  margin: 0 auto;
}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">
      src="https://cdn.freecodecamp.org/testable-projects-fcc/images/tribute-page-main-image.jpg"
      alt="Dr. Norman Borlaug seen standing in Mexican wheat field with a group of biologists"
    />

The stylesheet link should not be inside the img element. It should be inside a <head> element.

The CSS coloured markers lessons explain how stylesheet links should be structured in your html document.

(I should have referred you to that first rather than the cafe menu as it covers the stylesheet link.)

The below css should not be in your html.

    img {
  max-width: 100%;
  display: block;
  height: auto;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

It should be in your css tab (circled in red.)

This id element is incorrectly written. It should not have a hashtag in it.

<figure id="image#-div">

Out of interest, have you done all the lessons that come before this project and the survey form project?
